Waste mineral oil
J100 is a 2025 reporting category; choose a state code for a movement.

Is National J100 hazardous waste?
Not from the code alone. J100 is a DCCEEW reporting category that groups waste data nationally. It doesn't make every material with this description hazardous. State and territory rules decide the classification, exclusions and movement duties for a real load.
Enter J100 in the national waste-data category field when reporting under that standard. It isn't a transport certificate. A movement needs the code and record accepted where it starts, plus any required destination consignment authorisation for an interstate controlled load. Apply separate interstate movement controls, because a reporting code gives no state movement classification.
What does National J100 cover?
Waste mineral oil goes here once it is no longer fit for its original use. The code is for the oil itself. J120 takes mixtures and emulsions of oil and water.
